MARISSA STAPLEY
FEATURED AUTHOR
New York Times bestselling author of Reese’s Book Club pick Lucky, as well as international bestsellers Mating for Life, Things to Do When It’s Raining, and The Last Resort. She has also co-written The Holiday Swap and All I Want for Christmas with bestselling author Karma Brown under the pen name Maggie Knox. Her latest novel is The Lightning Bottles, a tale of lost love in the grunge era of rock ‘n roll.
Many of Marissa’s novels have been optioned for television and her journalism has appeared in publications across North America. She has also worked as a sports reporter, cemetery gardener, bartender, destination travel rep, stable hand, and
magazine editor — but becoming an author is a dream she has harboured since the age of seven, when she decided she was going to be the next L.M. Montgomery.
She lives in Toronto with her family.
NOTE: Lucky is in film production with Anya Taylor-Joy as lead.
